Animals, The - House Of The Rising Sun

========================================



There is a house in New Orleans



They call the rising sun



And its been the ruins of many a poor boy



And god I know Im one







My mother was a taylor



She sewed my new blue jeans



My father was a gamblin?man



Way down in New Orleans







Now the only thing a gambler needs



Is a suitcase and a trunk



And the only time you keep him satisfied



Is when hes all a drunk







Oh mother tell your children



Not to do what I have done



Spend your life in sin and misery



In the house of the rising sun







I got one foot on the platform



The other on a train



And Im goin?back to New Orleans



To swing that ball and chain







Yeah, there is a house in New Orleans



They call the rising sun



And its been the ruins of many a poor boy



And God I know Im one
